Ive got 59K on my 94 RC without a problem. I tow a trailer that weighs over
5K loaded, have tow barred many cars, Run it down the 1/4 mile several times
and vever had a problem.

The NV3500 is not unique to CC and is used in many GM trucks too.

Specifically what fails ? and is it a NV3500 or is it an AX 15 ?
